Learning about the MFP

Basic functions of the scanner

Note: Faxing is not supported on all models.

The

Lexmark™ 4600 MFP option provides copy, fax, and scan-to-network capability for large workgroups. You can:

• Make quick copies, or change the settings on the control panel to perform specific copying jobs.

• Send an outgoing fax using the MFP control panel.

• Send an outgoing fax to multiple fax destinations at the same time.

• Scan documents and send them to your PC, an e-mail address, a USB flash memory device, or an FTP

destination.

• Scan documents and send them to another printer (PDF by way of FTP).

Automatic document feeder and flatbed

Note: Color documents can be scanned to a PC, e-mail address, or an FTP destination. Printed output on

this MFP is black and grayscale only, not color.

The ADF (automatic document feeder) can scan multiple pages including duplex pages. The ADF has two scanner

elements. When using the ADF:

• Place the paper in the ADF faceup, short-edge first.

• Place up to 50 sheets of plain paper on the ADF input tray.

• Scan media from 114.0 x 139.4 mm (4.5 x 5.5 in.) to 215.9 x 355.6 mm (8.5 x 14 in.).

• Scan jobs with mixed page sizes (letter and legal).

• Scan media weight from 52 to 120 g/m

2

(14 to 32 lb).

Note: Color documents can be scanned to a PC, e-mail address, or an FTP destination.

• Copy and print documents at 600 dpi

Note: Printed output is black and grayscale only, not color.

The flatbed (platen) can be used to scan or copy single pages or book pages. When using the flatbed:

• Place the document in the left rear corner.

• Scan or copy media up to 215.9 x 355.6 mm (8.5 x 14 in.).

• Copy books up to 25.3 mm (1 in.) thick.

• Copy and print documents at 600 dpi.

Learning about the MFP

Understanding the MFP control panel

MFP and scanner settings can be changed several ways: through the MFP control panel, the software application in use,

the print driver, MarkVision™ Professional, or the Web pages. Settings changed from the application or print driver apply

only to the job being sent to the MFP.

Changes made to print, fax, copy, and e-mail settings from an application override changes made from the control panel.

Note: Faxing is not supported on all models.

If a setting cannot be changed from the application, use the MFP control panel, MarkVision Professional, or the Web pages.

Changing a setting from the MFP control panel, MarkVision Professional, or the Web pages makes that setting the user

default.

The MFP control panel consists of:

Callout Control panel item Function

1 LCD A liquid crystal display (LCD) which shows home screen

buttons, menus, menu items, and values. Allows for

making selections within Copy, Fax, and so on.

Note: Referred to as the numeric

keypad.

Press these buttons to enter numbers when the LCD

screen has a field that accepts the entry of numbers.

Also, use these buttons to dial phone numbers for faxes.

Note: If a number is pressed while on the home screen

without pressing the # button first, the Copy menu opens

and changes the Copy Quantity.

4 # (Pound or number character) Press this button:

• For a shortcut identifier.

• Within phone numbers. For a Fax number with a #,

enter it twice – ##.

• From the home screen, the Fax Destination List menu

item, E-mail Destination List menu item, or Profile List

menu item to access shortcuts.

5 Dial Pause Press to cause a two- or three-second dial pause in a fax

number. The button only functions within the Fax menu or

with fax functions.

Press from the home screen to redial a fax number.

When outside of the Fax menu, fax function, or home

screen, pressing Dial Pause causes an error beep.

When sending a fax, in the Fax To: field, a Dial Pause

press is represented by a comma (,).

6 Clear All When in the function menus, such as Copy, Fax, E-mail,

and FTP, it returns all settings to their default values, and

then returns the MFP to the main function screen.

7 Start Press to initiate the current job indicated on the control

panel.

From the home screen, press it to start a copy job with

the default settings.

If pressed while a job runs through the scanner, the

button has no effect.

8 Stop Press to cause the printing or scanning to stop.

During a scan job, the scanner finishes scanning the

current page and then stops, which means paper may

remain in the automatic document feeder (ADF).

During a print job, the print media path is cleared before

the printing stops.

Stopping appears on the control panel during this

process.

9 Backspace Within the Copy menu, which is accessed by touching

the Copy button, press Backspace to delete the right-

most digit of the value in the Copy Count. The default

value of 1 appears if the entire number is deleted by

pressing Backspace numerous times.

Within the Fax Destination List, press Backspace to

delete the right-most digit of a number entered manually.

It also deletes an entire shortcut entry. Once an entire

line is deleted, another press of Backspace causes the

cursor to move up one line.

Within the E-mail Destination List, press Backspace to

delete the character to the left of the cursor. If the entry is

in a shortcut, the entire entry is deleted.

10 Asterisk (*) * is used as part of a fax number or as an alphanumeric

character.

feature acts as a trail. It gives the exact location within

the menus. Touch any of the underlined words to return

to that menu or menu item. The Number of Copies is not

underlined since this is the current screen.

If this feature is used on the Number of Copies screen

before the Number of Copies is set and saved, then the

selection is not saved, and it does not become the user

default setting.

Attendance message alert If an attendance message occurs which closes a

function, such as copy or fax, then a solid red

exclamation point appears over the function button on the

home screen. This feature indicates that an attendance

message exists.

Press Status/Supplies to see the current status of the

Menus

A number of menus are available to make it easy for you to change MFP settings or print reports. To access the menus and

settings, press the menu button in the lower right corner of the home screen.

When a value or setting is selected and saved, it is stored in MFP memory. Once stored, these settings remain active until

new ones are stored or the factory defaults are restored.

Note: Settings chosen for faxing, scanning, e-mailing, copying, and settings for printing from the application

may override the settings selected from the control panel.

The following diagram shows the touch screen menu index and the menus and items available under each menu. For more

information about menus and menu items, see the Menus and Messages Guide on the Software and Documentation CD.
